According to federal guidelines from the US Department of Health and Human Services, adults should do at least 150 minutes a week of moderately intense aerobic physical activity. That's just 22 minutes a day of activity to maintain a good level of health. For those who want to achieve more with their bodies, a few visits to the gym are needed each week. If you don't have the time to go to the gym, a home gym is an obvious answer but what should you include and how do you build a gym at home?
Building a Budget Home Gym
Let's assume you don't have all the money in the world. If so, you'll need to pack your gym with the right equipment for the right price. Whether you want better fitness or to build muscle, you don't need lots of money to achieve your aim if you buy used equipment or if you build your own. Get used equipment from friends and colleague who have stopped using their gym equipment or search Craigslist or eBay or Facebook Marketplace for quality used exercise bikes, rowing machines, treadmills, or steppers.
Build Your Own Equipment
If you can't find what you're looking for at the price you're willing to pay, why not build the equipment yourself? Without going into too much detail, you could make a pull-up bar using pipes. Pipes can also be used to make a gymnastics bar or a squat rack. You could make yourself a DIY dip station from 2x4s and pipes. These inexpensive ideas come with risks so if you build yourself a gym this way, make sure it's safe before using it.
Equipment
You can buy a home gym kit that includes everything most people will want at home, but they worth getting? Your workout space needs to have the equipment that fits your aspirations so the best advice is to build the gym piece by piece rather than buying one multipurpose item that works every muscle group. That's particularly important if more than one member of the family will want to use the gym at the same time. One piece of equipment won't go two ways.
Low Price New Equipment
When ellipticals, stair steppers, and treadmills cost between two thousand and ten thousand dollars each, you have a lot of choices. The cheaper models are made for home gyms while the heavy-duty expensive equipment can withstand constant use at a commercial gym. It's up to you to decide what you need and how long you'll need the equipment for. If you go down the cheap route, check out reviews of the equipment before buying.
Location
Where are you going to put your gym? Some people use a spare room for this. Others put their gym in their garage or in the basement. It's up to you but each has advantages over the other. If you're going to use a treadmill and pound away on it for ages, do you really want to rock the living room ceiling below you? A basement or garage set up works best for treadmills and exercise bikes. If you're worried that you'll forget to exercise, put your gym in one of the bedrooms. If not, the basement or garage are probably the best spaces for them in the home.
